Any roleplayers?

Always thought about giving it a go, but it seems you need to have researched a great deal in order to understand the bigger picture with enough depth to be convincing. Now for me, that sounds like far too much effort for a game, but I salute those of you that do.

I could probably do BF3 roleplay because that’s pretty much second nature to me.
I can do your 9 liners, WALTA, SALTA and MISTAT’s without breaking sweat.

I guess in the end, it will become a lot easier the more experience in game content you play in the roleplay scene, though I would feel a bit out of sorts for a while till I got the hang of it.

Roleplay in a game is actually pretty simple to start with. It's basically just shared storytelling, adlibbed. So what you do is develop a story for YOUR character, a behavior, attitude, goals and a style. Then you act it out like you were in a dream, as your character. The more immersed you get with your character, and teh more involved you get with your surroundings, it gets more complicated, but it also gets easier, as long as you are frequent.

It doesnt really involve a strong understanding of teh game and it's story, we werent born on this planet with a knowledge of it's history... Same concept, so if you are curious about RP, and want to give it a go, jump in it. Worst case scenario, you feel awkward, type out "lol" an go shoot something in the face.

@Power Play - Virtue Server - Main Character: Liberty Eagle


Been ARR PEEing (that looks nasty) since the days of the text-based MUSHes and MUSEs of the early 1990s, back before the internet was commercially available...before graphics and the WorldWide Web. Lately, eight and a half years on City of Heroes. I'm trying to grab some of my CoH supergroup (guild) and our coalition partners into the game.

If you have a game which follows along with a STORYLINE of a TV SHOW, where the actors are PLAYING ROLES, it only makes sense we should try to stress the RP possibilities in a game like this.



Just my $.02

given this game has a tv show the creative aspect will be huge as well as the lore behind defiance their will be huge opportunity to rp

i agree with this =D

im a part time role player il do it for fun but when it comes down to it i wont

This will be my first attempt in creating such a clan that will be involve around RP. I have been reading on the subject and trying to find out what type of method use to make it successful. Will the Dev provide such mechanism in the game that would provide tracking of members loot, progression and etc?

I have nothing bad to say about RP players ,but I think this game will be to fast paced to worry about trying to RP.;)
